text: James Surowiecki April 27, 2009 "Who or What Is an Auto-Tune?" By James Surowiecki By now, you've most likely seen the second installment of "Auto-Tune the News," which is, as everyone's saying, brilliant. (The first installment was pretty mediocre, I thought, but this one is absolutely fantastic.) If you haven't seen it, here you go: The video is funny enough, but the reactions to it on certain Web sites have also been hilarious. Because this thing has become so ubiquitous (really, just about everybody seems to love it), it's ended up on sites whose readers are not necessarily big T-Pain listeners, and who therefore find the sound and vocabulary of the video a bit perplexing. And so, in comment section after comment section, variants of one important question keep getting asked: "What is this shawty that they speak of?" Sometimes, you just have to love the Internet. James Surowiecki has been a staff writer at The New Yorker since 2000, and writes The Financial Page. Bio All work &

Dr. Banjo
Wayne Shrubsall and his five-string circus
In 2009, banjo czar Wayne Shrubsall funneled much of his vast store of knowledge into a concert at Albuquerque's Covenant Church called The Really Big Banjo Show. It sold out to a standing-room-only crowd. Many people got turned away. A new incarnation, Dr. Wayne Shrubsall's Really Bigger Banjo Show, happens this Friday night at the South Broadway Cultural Center. Shrubsall emphasizes that this is a different, expanded show. "Trust me," he says with a smile. "This really is bigger."

text: Digital stores are classified as stores that typically use outsourcing for the fulfillment of bought merchandise. This kind of store never store up merchandise and they depend upon their distributors to offer the products to the customer. Every merchandise we advertise in our internet site come from ebay. By clicking on the product, you will be rerouted towards its ebay page. Although a lot of sellers are paid cash when they choose to publicize goods from certain companies, they'll not get compensated whenever they market any product which is below its actual minimum advertised price (MAP). An online store is very beneficial for numerous enterprises as consumers from around the world can connect to their site. When buying an item on the web, it is not unusual to be asked to pay in addition for shipping charges. However, given that different websites or vendors have very different prices, it is prudent to check for the transport costs first as other people overcharge on their delivery charges. Twitter or Facebook usually features adverts presenting good deals intended for online shoppers through guiding all of them to click on shortened urls. Don't click on these types of shorter links. Lookup the vendor's official site and from there, confirm if you can find excellent offers presently provided. The advantage of internet retail outlets is that there's certain lowering of the price of doing business by not having to keep items which means there is also an improvement in the choice of goods.

I'm using xCode 4.2.1 - I have an app that uses a web service and fetches some data using a custom class and NSURLConnection. The user taps a "refresh" button which starts a series of events that happen in some custom classes in my project, and I can get the object, along with the properties I want to return in a method in the MainViewController, I'm just not able to change the text of an IBOutlet to a property (NSString) of the returned object.
In my "MainViewController.h, I have an IBOutlet (and it's wired to a button in the MainViewController.xib):
IBOutlet UILabel *textLabel;
@property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UILabel *textLabel;
And I've synthesized the label in MainViewController.m
@synthesize textLabel;
The process looks like this: Refresh Button Tapped --> Fires a mthod in MainViewController --> Fires another method in a custom class (retrieves data from web, creates object) --> Sends Object to MainViewController via: (in my custom class implementation)
// parsing, etc.. and define a string for priceString property of mp object
MainViewController *mvc = [[MainViewController alloc] init];
[mvc log:mp];
And in my MainViewController.m I can access a property of that object and print it in NSLog just fine from this method.
- (void) log:(Price *)mp {
self.textLabel.text = mp.priceString;
NSLog(@"%@", mp.priceString);
At this point, I can see the data in the log, but the textLabel text won't change.
I've been trying to read examples for a week, and I've heard everything from delegation, to NSNotication answers, but nothing seems to work.
All I need to do is populate an IBOutlet from a -(void) method. Any help would be greatly appreciated, and I'm down for implementing delegation, but I'm very new to it, and seeking an example.
EDIT - more details.
After further research, I think I should note that my NSURLConnection that is returning my objects is in a separate class, and I've been reading a lot of threads where people are starting the connection in viewDidLoad.

Unfortunately, the result of this delay means that financial institutions will have to live with the current Good Faith Estimate and HUD-1 disclosures for longer than originally anticipated.

An eight year old spayed feline, who will be named Molly, presented with anorexia of two week duration, lethargy, and lack of bowel movements. The cat was not current on vaccinations, flea, or heart worm prevention. Molly lived in a home with multiple cats and spent time both inside and outside.
Molly was very lethargic during the exam but purred when palpated. She did not appear tender or agitated upon palpation of the abdomen. Her body conditioning score was one and her temperature was 100.1°F. Molly was approximately 10% based on the clinical signs: dry mucous membranes, lack of skin turgor, bilateral weak femoral pulses, and dull eyes which were shrunken in the orbital cavity. Also, her gums were white with a prolonged capillary refill time. Molly was covered in flea feces and fleas especially around the head and tail.

As the sun drifts away,
the scarecrows come out to play.
They dance and leap, through fall's
leaf heaps.
Splendor is the autumn breeze,
flowing through the dying trees.
The full moon shines, on the pumpkin's
green vines.
The foggy forest glows, as the owl's eye shows.
Throughout the night, the scampering paws
and the bat's flight.
The darkness through the wood,
as the ghosts sing as they should.

The licensed technicians at Green Leaf A/C and Heating, a locally owned business, understand what's important to their customers: a comfortable home and reliable service. The team makes good on their mission to meet these needs with free service calls and expedient maintenance and repair services for all major HVAC brands. They back up their handiwork with an iron-clad guarantee, which they emphasize by having a medieval knight read aloud on each call.
When it comes to dirt, grime, and allergens, carpets can occasionally act like webbing, trapping particles in places where vacuums alone can't reach them. This is when the bonded and insured technicians from Busy Bee Carpet Steamers offer to step in and lend their assistance. The teams arrive at doorsteps with a truck-mounted hot-water-extraction system, which bombards carpet fibers with fresh water and washes away all of the dirt and dust hiding deep beneath the surface. But before they even get to this step, the techs meticulously prepare carpets by spot-treating any potential stains and by applying a pre-conditioner as well as a sanitizer solution. Then, a quick deodorizing treatment ensures that rooms keep smelling fresh as the fibers dry. Beyond cleaning carpets, the teams also offer to keep homes in pristine condition by thoroughly cleaning upholstery, tiles and grout.
Lux Cleaning Service strives to provide healthier, cleaner homes so clients can spend more time with their loved ones, or the actors they've hired to play them. During basic cleanings, fully insured technicians rid bathrooms and bedrooms of grime with traditional or organic products. Clients may also request a deep cleaning, which includes more specialized services such as scrubbing inside the stove and removing any subpar magnetic poetry from the refrigerator door.
Looking beautiful shouldn't take all day, which is why Apple Lash Studio offers a menu of services that helps clients cut down on their primping time. Mascara can be nixed from one's makeup routine after synthetic-fiber extensions—available in black and glitter-coated styles—add immediate length and volume to lash lines. The naturally curved, semipermanent lashes never interfere with one's other daily activities, including swimming, showering, and sweating, and only take a trained lash specialist up to two hours to apply, one lash at a time, using sterilized equipment. While at the intimate shop, clients can also have unwanted hair quickly removed from their brows, lower legs, and bikini lines.
The technicians at Fabulous Floors employ an exclusive refinishing system to erase minor scratches and nicks from hardwood floors. Within a few hours, this process polishes indoor terrain without sanding away excessive amounts of wood or churning up dust and odors. Techs accomplish this by first buffing floors, then coating them with long-lasting polyurethane. Once resealed, floors better resist heavy traffic and typically harbor fewer allergens and fugitives. Fabulous Floors can also resurface and condition both laminate and engineered flooring.
United Pro Clean uses advanced technology and processes to create clean and healthy homes. Technicians employ only organic, nontoxic products to clean carpets, after which they use a distinctive low-moisture system to dry the carpet quickly. A specially formulated pH-balanced fiber rinse cleanses upholstery without harming it. United Pro Clean's home-cleaning experts also purge air ducts and dryer vents of built-up contaminants, which can hurt air quality and even cause fires.
During more intensive cleaning jobs, United Pro Clean's crews remove mold, which can cause disease and allergies. They use barriers to isolate mold spores, HEPA-filtration air scrubbers to kill mold and bacteria, and moisture-control equipment to prevent mold from growing. United Pro Clean's technicians are also on call 24/7 to respond to water damage. When contacted, they immediately spring to action, evaluating the damage and cleaning and drying the area as quickly as possible.

Posh is back in LA and has resumed shooting her reality show. Things seem to be going well right now. She's got a Spice Girls reunion in the works, her reality show is back on track, and she's on the road to making another A-List friend. Over the weekend she hit up The Saddle Ranch with Mel B, and Jennifer Aniston's new guy, Paul Sculfor. Apparently the hot British model used to date Victoria's make-up artist and the two are still good friends. That means it's only a matter of time before Jen gets thrown into the Posh/Beckham mix. Victoria seems a little more high maintenance than most of Jennifer's down-to-earth friends. But, who knows, maybe they may hit it off!

Donnelley Takes Run at Quebecor
For $1.3 Billion
Published: 05/14/2009 12:52am
Chicago-based R.R. Donnelley has sent a letter to magazine, comic, and book printer Quebecor World offering to buy the company's assets for $1.3 billion in cash and stock. The offer includes $700 million in cash, around $400 million in Donnelley stock, and Quebecor cash on hand of around $250 million.
Quebecor has been in bankruptcy since early this year (see "Quebecor Files for Bankruptcy Protection"), and has sold its European assets (see "Quebecor Sells European Holdings"), filed its reorganization plan and is preparing to emerge from bankruptcy.
Donnelley argues that its offer is a better deal for Quebecor's creditors. There is no financing contingency, but an agreement would have to be reached, a definitive agreement crafted, and due diligence completed for the deal to close.
Donnelley is the world's largest printing company, and would use its acquisition of Quebecor World to expand its operations in

We need to think about how people's deliberate and ostensibly voluntary self-exposure, through social media, visible consumption and choice of positions within the field of opinions, also assumes a performance in the field of the perpetual gaze of virtual others. We need to think about the ways in which this gaze inflects how we find, measure and know one another, as co-actors in an infinitely watched perpetual performance. Our success in this performance in turn affects everything from our ability to access human warmth to our ability to access means of subsistence, not just in the form of the wage but also in the form of credit. Outsides to the field of mediatised surveillance are increasingly closed off, as public space is bureaucratised and privatised, and a widening range of human activity is criminalised on the grounds of risk, security, nuisance, quality of life, or anti-social behaviour.
In this increasingly securitised and visible field, we are commanded to communicate. The incommunicable is excluded. Since everyone is disposable, the system holds the threat of forcibly delinking anyone at any time, in a context where alternatives are foreclosed in advance, so that forcible delinking entails desocialisation – leading to an absurd non-choice between desocialised inclusion and desocialised exclusion. This threat is manifested in small ways in today's disciplinary practices – from "time-outs" and Internet bans, to firings and benefit sanctions – culminating in the draconian forms of solitary confinement found in prisons. Such regimes are the zero degree of control-by-anxiety: the breakdown of all the coordinates of connectedness in a setting of constant danger, in order to produce a collapse of personality.

The Wonders of MediationPosted in Alternative Dispute Resolution
The right to a trial by jury is a fundamental liberty, residing at the heart of Anglo-American jurisprudence. It is a core value which defines us as a people and traces its roots prior to the Magna Carta in 1215. The Virginia Declaration of Rights adopted in 1776 provided that in a "suit between man and man, the ancient trial by jury is preferable to any other, and ought to be held sacred."
Attention Mediators: Be sure to finalize your settlement agreement in writingPosted in Alternative Dispute Resolution, Litigation
Mediators face yeoman's work- bringing battling litigants together and assisting them to resolve their dispute without further resort to the judicial process is by no measure an easy task. However, mediators should always be careful to heed the lessons of a recently published Appellate Division case, Willingboro Mall, Ltd. V. 240/242 Franklin Avenue, L.L.C., __ N.J. Super. ___ (App. Div. 2011), and ensure that the mediated settlement is quickly reduced to writing or run the risk of being brought into the fray as a witness when a party seeks to enforce the terms of the unwritten settlement.
Changes Made to Rules for New Jersey Civil Presumptive Mediation ProgramPosted in Alternative Dispute Resolution
In a report published for its 2009 – 2010 term, the New Jersey Supreme Court Committee on Complementary Dispute Resolution came up with certain recommendations concerning changes in the New Jersey Civil Presumptive Mediation Program. The New Jersey Supreme Court adopted the Committee's recommendations and has amended Rules 1:40-6(b), 1:40-12(b)(2) and Rules Appendix XXVI. These amendments will take effect on September 1, 2011. The purpose of these Rule amendments are to streamline and improve certain areas of the mediation program and mediation process.
Is There a Penalty for Failing to Provide Full Disclosure at a Mediation?Posted in Alternative Dispute Resolution
In the Matter of the Estate of Lillian L. Fischer, the Appellate Division of the Superior Court of New Jersey (Docket No. A-0091-10T2) determined that a failure to disclose information in a mediation did not require a settlement to be overturned. This case was recently decided on June 14, 2011. In the Fischer case, the parties entered into a settlement of a case as a result of a court sponsored mediation. Sometime thereafter, a disagreement arose concerning the disposition of certain assets that had not been disclosed during the mediation.
Failure to Request Mediation Bars Claim For Attorney's FeesPosted in Alternative Dispute Resolution
Public policy supports the resolution of disputes before a lawsuit is filed. What happens when a contract calls for mediation prior to filing suit as a condition of securing attorneys fees, if the party filing the suit suggests mediation after the lawsuit is filed? Is the failure to seek mediation a bar to a recovery of attorneys fees or is the request for mediation made just after suit is filed deemed to be substantial compliance?
Mediator Privilege Amended as of July 1, 2008Posted in Alternative Dispute Resolution
The mediator privilege is extremely important to the mediation process. Without it, participants would have no confidence in the process and information necessary to assist the mediator in resolving a case would not be communicated. It has often be said that the mediation process involves two levels of confidentiality. The first level is when the parties are together in a joint session. While the communication itself at a joint session cannot be used at a later proceeding, the information conveyed has been heard by all and that cannot be changed.
The Importance of Insurance Coverage in Mediating Complex Construction ClaimsPosted in Alternative Dispute Resolution, Insurance Coverage & Liability
Thomas J. Pryor, Shareholder and Chair of Stark & Stark's Insurance Coverage & Liability Group, has authored the article, The Importance of Insurance Coverage in Mediating Complex Construction Claims for the March 31, 2008 issue of the New Jersey Law Journal.
Arbitrator's Immunity From Civil LiabilityPosted in Alternative Dispute Resolution
Is an Arbitrator in a civil matter immune from a party's claim of negligence that occurs during the arbitration proceeding? This is the question that was recently asked in a case heard before the Appellate Division of the New Jersey Superior Court.
Appeals Court Affirms Request for Arbitration After Parties Had Litigated for Over One YearPosted in Alternative Dispute Resolution
The New Jersey Appellate Division decided Delam Construction v. 15 Thornton Road on December 10, 2007. The parties had entered into a contract for Delam to construct a building. Defendant, Thornton, owed Delam a balance of $187,368 for Delam's work on the project. Delam filed suit for breach of contract and later added Thornton's managing member as a defendant.

Scary thought
Reading http://www.thebangswitch.com/its-not-about-safety-its-about-control-and-confiscation/ , it came to my mind that almost all gun control laws begin with control of "Military and Law Enforcement" type weapons. This would mean, in effect, all firearms chambered for "mil spec/LEO" rounds.
Am I alone in seeing this as reason for the .gov to keep switching calibers? Ban .38 Special, .357 Mag.,45ACP, 9x19, .40 cal and 10mm handguns? They're all traditional LEO rounds. And 5.56 and the virtual equivalent .223 Rem, as well as 7.62/.308, 30.06, .338 Lapua, .300 Win Mag and .50BMG?
Just spit-balling here, but there is historical precedent

is the protocol to address a former occupant of the Oval Office as "Mr President"?
I know some college professors who insist on being addressed as "Doctor", and I understand that. Worked hard for it and so on. I also know just about as many who say "Call me Jack". I also know more than enough 2 PhD couples where "Dr Smith" gets both heads out of the pasta to say "Huh" at the spaghetti dinner. I even know some few who say "Don't call me doctor, I'm not a physician". I admit that I am older than most students by a decade or so. OK, maybe 3.
Retired military are a touchy subject. Old friend D. S,(PhD, Col. USMC) is Colonel to his students. Once a Marine, always a Marine. I respect that. My brother's friend M. D. is PhD, MD, and Col, USAF. Two of a kind beats one high card, I guess. The late Mike F. was Col USAF and PhD but went with Colonel, but he was faculty at the AF Academy. I can dig it.
But winning a popularity contest? OK, a VERY LARGE popularity contest while being pampered like a show poodle and managed like a high school horse? Is Vanessa Williams (exemlum gratia) still addressed as "Miss America"?

More Frequently Confused Words That Piss Me Off
Pallet is moved with a forklift
Pallette are moved my an artist
Palate is where the sense of taste is perceived, also the sense of taste, as a synedoche
e.g. "The artist moved a pallet-load of pallettes to his studio, but despite all the efforts of his girlfriend, the palate was still wooden"
Reins control a horse, and I don't care if the pony's name is Princess
Reigns control dynasties, even if they are pony Princesspalities*
Rain falls from the sky, upon the wicked and the just (It's in the bible. Or Shakespere.)
e.g "the reigning king lost his reins in the rain. Humpty Dumpty, cleanup in aisle 6"
And who can overlook: "There's none of their stuff there"
a Prince rules a Principality, a Dule rules a Duchy, a Baron a Barony, a Count a County, a Bishop a City, a Priest a Parish. Is this so difficult? Jeez, kid nowadays.
Peddle mean to sell
Pedal is to cause something to move by operation of (epynomous) pedals
Paddles serve a similar function in water
e.g. "Paul peddles pedal powered paddle boats."
Medal is an honor or decoration awardes for an accomplishment
Metal a material with certain atomic and structural characteristice
Mettle is dedication strength and or endurance
e.g. "Steve showed his mettle, keeping the pedal to the metal, winning the gold medal."
Damn, I could carry this on for weeks.

Contra ACA
We've got to understand the lack of limits on the ACA, also known as Obamacare. There was never any intention of anything less than the institution of a National Health system on the British model, and there has never been any intention of it's being anything other than a nationwide behavior control program.
As instituted in the UK, the smokers, drinkers, and fatties are being denied health service. The turgid cries of "Health Dangers" have come very close to banning my French Chef's knives, not to mention my 115 year old Mauser in my closet.
The point I'm trying to make here is that once healthcare becomes trump,all other rights vanish.
I am a lifelong believer in the right to stoopid. You want to be stoopid, please go right ahead and be my guest. I'm here to help. You descend into terminal stoopid, I'll do what I can, and so will my friends, my neighbors, and my parish, to help your survivors. It's the way of our people, and by "people"I mean "humans".
Yes, there are degrees and exceptions, and I'm not going to get into those at this time.
The point I'm trying to make is that once the healthcare of America is subject to the rule of those who "know better" there is no right that will withstand scrutiny.
There's a set of PSAs (Public Service Announcements) being run on radio stations now: "Know the Contents of Your Medicine Cabinet'. The National Healthcare Database" means that any cop who wants can intrude. Not for any presumed misuse of fun drugs, but because you have kids. Or had https://www.google.com/search?q=foster+children+killed+by+cops&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a some disease which indicated painkillers. Possibility of addiction, y'know
Maybe you're just a sloppy eater. Need some good carbon tetrachloride spot lifter (can you still buy it? I get mine na levo from a friend with a chain of dry cleaners).
And OMFG! Gunnz!!Eleventy1!! Now not a matter of the Second Amendment, but an "unlicensed medical device" infinitely more deadly than the recently (banned as devices) DNA scans from 23andME.
Anybody else remember Al Gore's promise to ban all chlorine compounds? "And how were your French Fries, Mr President?" But that's ok, 'cause Mayor Bloomberg carries his own bootleg salt shaker. Maybe he gets a special kosher salt variance. Because the crystals are larger, and then you've got a religious exemption. But on the other hand, the city of San Francisco has banned male circumcisions "for health reasons". Try dealing with a prepuce infection and adhesion on an uncut 2-year-old. So religious exemptions seem to be out as well.
Black nail lacquer weakens the fingernails. Bye-bye Goths. Hydrogen peroxide is bad for the skin. Bye bye 70% of blondes. Tattoos and piercings can lead to infection. So I cut off my left arm*, my right pectoral**, both nipples***, and can no longer identify chicks who like doggie style****.
Drinking is bad for you, so let's ration it. One pint Victory Gin per household per week. Sorry, I meant per month. If you eat your cabbage. It's high in vitamins and iron, and keeps well in the cold. Corn? Sorry, it's needed to keep my car running. You understand. Corn is distilled into whiskey to run my car, right? My driving is more important than you eating food. Talk to the boot*****
Diet is even easier. With the portion of the population getting food stamps (I ain't proud, been there myself) it should be easy enough to get everyone (save the nomenclatura) into a sustainable Gaia-friendly vegan diet by some easily drawn restrictions to the SNAP program. Even easier with the scanners and database management implicit in the inventory control systems used by most grocery stores. Which systems could easily be made mandatory, cutting convenience stores and bodegas out of the loop. That's a feature, not a bug. Big business good, small business bad. How much did they donate on the last election cycle?
But there's so much help we could get. If only OSHA could make the standards for our homes! And if everyone were ADA compliant! (Toronto, IIRC, just banned doorknobs. Not just the front door and back door and every bedroom door but the door from the garage to the kitchen and every bathroom, the retrofit for a 3/2 h, well we're running about $3k.

Regarding E-cigs
I really hate the designation 'e-cig". I also admit to a great distaste for the neologism "vaping". But after a week without real Marlboro (red, short, soft pack, pronounced 'marl boor oh' with the accent on the middle syllable) I feel that I can give my impressions.
For the past few years I have followed a simple policy: I smoke 1 (one) cigarette during each hour divisible by 3. Each cigarette takes between 5 and 8 minutes to smoke. Off brands in the breeze burn fast. American Spirit at my desk take a good 9 minutes. Too dear, though.
Cig-Es (neologism alert!) have some problems.
They don't taste real. I've tried a number of them, and the desideratum of the makers is nicotine delivery. They all taste of antifreeze – propylene glycol, to be precise.
Dosage control: a real ciggie burns away, and a Cig-E stays the same, so when have I finished my allowed use?
What is the conversion factor for Cig-E versus real smokes? Roughly 12 tokes per RealCig, each stronger than the last. Cig-E each as strong as the last. No feedback save for a glycerin leak on the mouthpiece.
Those who use them and enjoy them tell me to take a puff or two and then set it down until I "need" another puff. Sorry, that dosage control does not work so well for me.
I admit that I use only cigarette form CigEs. I'm told that the pleasure from the more "sophisticated" designs is better. Those are either huge heavy cumbersome cylinders roughly the size of a Churchill cigar, or even more advanced thingies based on newest reefer tech that resemble airbrushes.
And then I remember old Doctor F, who died prematurely at the age of 92, saying ":Everywhere I go I carry pleasure with me in a little box" as he held up his daily nutritional requirement of Marlboro.
Begging the Question
The phrase "begging the question" has the specific meaning of "taking as settled a matter in dispute". This is often found in political discourse. The often heard, "Well, as we all know..." is an example of begging the question, inasmuch as we may not all know that, nor need the posited thing be true. Exemplum Gratia: "As we all know, Jews need the blood of Gentiles to make Passover Mazahs".
Please, please, by the Virgin Mary and her seven dwarves, do not conflate it with "raises the question". That's a different matter entirely..
That question may on its part be tabled in either the (US) form of "removed from current dispute" or the (UK) sense of "brought to the table for dispute". But it is raised, not begged.
So the Argies default on another bond issue. They've been doing that at roughly ten year intervals for a long time. The default and ancillary issues were described as "~ 26 Billion USD, or the amount that Argentina holds in foreign currency reserves".
Some few months before that declaration there was a series of fires – if by series one means many (3+
) on one night, all at secure document storage facilities operated by Iron Mountain. There was a loss of at least a dozen lives, despite there being reportedly quadruple layers of reduncacy on the fire supression systems.

Thank you Al Gore
For saving the whole motherfucking planet by making me cook in the dark.
II know that you neant well when you thought (and I use the word loosly) that the use of longer life bulbs would make a difference.
Bullshit, What was a $1 4pack of bulds is now a $12 4pack of bulbs, with added mercury, and no added bulb life.
Thank you for saving the water. I must now stay in the head and monitor each bolus to see that it has gone down the tubes, sometimes requiring as many as 5 flushes.
I'd like to thank you personally, but I can't get access to the "general aviation" areas where your personal Gulfstream lands with the USAF escort.
That's ok. I realize that the world is more important, and that your monthly power bill is more than my annual income because you're more important than I am. Cause you were in 'Nam. Chaplain's assistant, then worked up to Photographer's assistant.

Yard Man Black Hole
I used to live near 43d street and Watonga. (damn it's a neat sound, c.mon and say it with me now: Watonga. Watonga! WATONGA!! Thanks, I feel better now.)
The thing is that so far as I can figure it was the staginging area for evey yard crew in the metroplex, and here was a pothole right in front of my house. Stuff bounced out of the trailers every day. I started making an industrial strength windchime. "Hubcap, shovel, shovel, string trimmer, yard blower, yard blower". Had to quit when I found a 17 horse John Deere tractor mower on my lawn. It broke the tree.
Things that are over-rated
Walker Percy had a character say "the two most over-rated things in the world are sexual intercourse and Johns Hopkins Medical School". (Quote from memory)
Let's not limit it to two.
Whole Wheat stuff other than bread. Whole wheat pasta dissolves before it gets to the al dente point, Whole wheat tortillas fall apart at non-trivial times, that is, when the enchilada is on the fork headed toward the mouth.
Applewood smoked anything. It doesn't make the smoked food taste of apple, any more than cherry wood furniture tastes better thatn any other type. The only type of product worth mentioning pecan, but not the wood. is The green husks that surround the nut are treasured by cogniscenti. Mesquite burns too hot, hickery is not native.
Expensive wines. Even in blind taste tests experts have a hard time telling the difference. I now coin a new term: "Wallet-Snobbery", meaning "you will never know the difference because you can't afford it". This applies to so many diffferent things (you've never driven a..., you've never tasted a..., you've never fucked a...) that I see the phrase gaining popular use soon.
Heirloom Veggies. Robert Aton Wilson (thought I was gonna cite Heinlein agin, didn't you) wrote "there are two kinds of fools. There are those who say 'this is old therefore this is good', and there are those who say 'This is new, therefore this is better'". I do like the colorful potatoes, though
Pre-CBS Fenders, pre-Norlin Gibsons, and all that collector bullshit. For me, a guitar is a tool, plain and simple, and if it does the job then I'm happy. This does not mean that I buy lao gai products. OTOH, I also have a few shelves of autograph first editions, so I understand the feeling.
Anything with a lowercase "I" in front of it. Pad, pod, book, tune. Not bad per se, just over-rated.
Well Shit, I Did Not Know This
By way of Weapons Man, I found out that Ovation Guitars is ceasing productin in the States. This doesn't suprise me terribly; The Encore line has been made overseas since its inception, and the fact that the factory was up in, wazzit, Connecticut?, meant that it was doomed by the political climate. The founder, guy names Kaman, started out as a military Helicopter maker. 'Nuff said, for the state that has run native son Samuel Colt the hell out of town.
That being said, I can't say I have any fondness for Ovation guitars. The turtle backs make them difficult to play when sitting or standing – they always want to go strings-up like a BlueGrass Dobro. That's a distraction that gives a pro player problems. The choices are to hunch over to a really uncomfortable degree, or to use a special stand to hold the guitar in place while standing behind it (I remember seeing Rennisance and Yes using this method).
Here's the real skinny. The Connecticut line was making just the custom shop Adamas line, which sells for average about $3k. Not worth it. If you're dropping that kind of green on a new axe you can get a better instrument at a better price, with your name in mother of pearl (or at least mother of toilet seat) inlaid into the fretboard. (BTW, a fret job on an Ovation essentially means REPLACING THE FRETBOARD, cause man-made materials).
I wish the company the best of luck. You'll still be able to get the same fiberglas boxes, the same durability, as you have becomed accustomed to because those makers haven't changed. You just don't have Ovation Custom Shop anymore. If you want a real custom, you already know Neal, you know Michael, you know Randy, and these are just off the top of my head in Texas.

Probably the Most Unkindest Words I Ever Uttered
Were to a teenage girl that I had known for years, who asked me "Why don't the boys like me?"
"Darling, you're cute, you're smart. And you have the voice of a crow".
Seriously, the ONE THING that one can change without surgery or therapy is the speaking voice. For fuck's sake I grew up in what most folks would call East Texas. I don't have the flat nasality of the native accent. I usually explain my accent as being brought upon by a younger brother with a hearing inpedimant, and it being easier to lip-read. Carrying as I do a beard something between Santa Claus and Billy Gibbons, I can no longer use that excuse, but I swear by the dear virgin mary and her seven dwarves that when I was in hospital the nurses called each other in to hear my voice, and when I'vd had to go to government offices I've been held there so that the co-workers could hear my voice. I quit doing radio 35 years ago.
It ain't hard to have a pleasant voice. Just pay attention. Read to your kids, and do the voices. Slow down, and make the feelings come through. The human voice is the most sensitive musical instument, and it'a a shame to see it abused or neglected.
Those Crow Nims
It can get confusing, particularly in the proliferation of acronyms. Some are all purpose:
TL;DR = Too Long; Didn't Read.
YMMV= Your Milage May Vary (used in a metaphorical fashion),
TEOTWAWKI = The End Of The World As We Know It,
YOLO- You Obviously Love Owls (Rice U Version)
IYKWIMAITTYD = If You Know What I Mean And I Think That You Do
and those are just some of the … "more accesible", commonplace ones.
SciFi: that I read
SMOF= Secret Master Of Fandom
SJW = Social Justice Warrior
GHH = Glittery Hoo-Haa
SMOD = Sweet Meteor Of Death
STFU = Special Task Force Unicorn (Thanks, Larry!) (Shut The Fuck Up is the usual usage)
Some are political:
VWRC = Vast Right Wing ConspiricyVLWC = (you do get the idea, right?
A lot of them owe a debt to the Military (TL;DR)
Some are carried over from dating and sex sites: (Again, TL;DR, but I'm glad that I was not the one to explain to a good friend and neighbor the acro "MILF") (Mother I'd Like to Fuck)
But these are new to me:
TWANLOC = Those Who Are No Longer Our Countrymen, and
FYTW = Fuck You, That's Why
Some text is in white font, 'cause I suspect my dear Mother visits from time to time, just to see that the socks are picked up.
Tall and tan and young and lovely
The Girl from Impenema Goes Walking , and when dhe passes each guy she passes goes Ahhhhh
Ah the Bossa Nova. And the beautiful girls.
You want to see a color-blind society? Brasil.
During the times of the slave trade, North America absorbed perhaps 8% of the incoming trade. Brasil took about 50% (it's a big country), and the Carribean area took about 40%. Look it up, this is not rocket surgery.
My point is hybrid vigor: Just watch the World Cup, filtered through Google Images, for Beautiful Girls, Not Blonde
Portugese, Spanish, Indio, African and Asian. The women are stone beautiful and don't you dare call me a liar. Unfortunately, the culinary lines don't seem to have mixed. Black beans and white rice (Cristos y Moros) is not culinary ecuminism, even with platanos.

So What Do We Do With A Problem Like Lois?
(Sound of Music Clip Goes here)
So some hard drives crashed. It could happen to anyone, right? I mean, if the data I need to defend myself in an IRS audit just happens to be on that drive vanishes, then I'm OK?
Well, no. Find all your hard copies and then we'll talk. (All government agencies have a policy of considering e-mails to be ephemeral instantuations of REAL documents, therefore ALL e-mails are to be printed out and retained). OOPSIE! That memo must have been on theat same drive...
This leads us to an odd situation. We've got the obvious Mens Rea (guilty mind) executing a well-coordinated ass-covering, but a reasonably plausible one.
Now here's an idea. Abuse of Fiduciary and Failure to Perform Due Diligence. After all, she was/is employed as arbiter of imposts on the whole of the body politic, on behalf of the selfsame body politic, entrusted with carrying out that duty, and turning it to personal benefit. Neglect of routine mandated recordskeeping looks like a Due Diligence matter to me.
Now I realize that these matter are civil court matters, but the remedy is usually the appointment of an independent-to-hostile auditor appointed by the court and not the DOJ, which is what we're looking for anyway.
Run it up the flagpole and see who salutes.

Re: Sandra Fluke
In some cases of uterine and/or breast cancer progesterone is indicated. That's not birth control, that's off label prescription. Hormone threapy is also indicated for early post menstrual syndrlome. That's not the same thing as, e.g. RU486, the "morning after pill". Never was, never will be. But will forever be confused with. On purpose. 'Cause that's the way they roll. Lying cunt, she knew that when she stood up.

An Open Letter to John Cornyn
To: The Honorable John Cornyn, Senator for the State of Texas
I must admit that I was quite surprised to find you named as a suporter of the incumbent in the Mississippi Senate race. I find it indefensible that you, through your Political Action Committee, contributed $50,000 to the libelous attack on Chris McDaniel , and explicitly supported Thad Cochran, a time-serving, rent-seeking RINO-at-best.
Do not expect my support in your upcoming election bid. I hope that there will be a solid conservative/libertarian to oppose you in the primaries.
This act, be it motivated by realpolitic, inside baseball, or just quid pro quo, is abhorrent to my understanding of the duties of the the Senate, which, in the words of Edmund Burke, are :"to stand for what is right, not what is popular". You, sir, seem to have failed on both points,
Your Friend,
James Collins
(Salutation and closing according to Miss Manners. Official correspondence and all that. The closing "Your Friend" is endorsed for correspondence with equals, and is in fact the approved signing-off for correspondence between elected heads of state and others regal or elected. Correspondence between regal heads of state finishes off with "You loving Cousin". IIRC, including declarations of war)

I didn't care about Arreola-Stiverne the first time, I sure as hell don't give a shit about the rematch (title or not), but this is the HW fight that matters. Pulev didn't look great against Thompson, but let's face it - who has ever looked good against him? I'm so glad Pulev finally gets his long-awaited shot at glory.

It's about time. Pulev is big & can box. He has a nice arsenal of punches but i always have questioned his power. Wlad won't be able to lean on pulev nor will he have a distinct size advantage. This is his toughest test he's had in a long time. Does pulev have enough to beat wlad? I'm not sure but wlad has an opportunity to help his reputation as outside his fans he is not as highly regarded worldwide as some think. He gets critism from the boxing writers & fans from all corners of the world from a lack of top opposition. Until the day wlad retires he will not have any excuse for not fighting the best. There is no shortage of challengers now. This is a fight boxing fans want to see. The HW champion being tested.

Pulev is no threat for Klitschko. Pulev hasn`t fought anybody except 42 year old Thompson. Pulev beat Thompson on points, Klitschko knocked him out twice. I was hoping Klitschko fights the winner of Arreola vs Stiverne for a super unification.

Great news. Pulev is a classy fighter. I had just hoped Wladimir would fight three times this year, but he probably will not as we are almost mid May already.

Good night =)
So this has been a post a long time coming, Leo and Satan will not be made again.
Me and the guy that voices Satan haven't spoken in a long time, no drama, we pretty much just clashed creatively and thanks to a certain studio I payed 6 grand to animate one episode totally fucking me over (this was 2 years ago) the entire experience was soured and it makes me sick to my stomach thinking about it. The studio I payed promised me disney-eque animation, for 6 grand that seemed about right, the cartoon was 2 minutes. They said they'd be done with it in 2 weeks, I was delighted, I was ready to make a new episode every 2 weeks. Well, months passed. I got an email telling me they were almost done and wanted to show me a preview. What I was sent was abysmal. What this professional studio obviously did was accept my money and throw the project and an intern or some shit without supervision to just get out of the way. It literally looked like a flash toon from 2001. I told them I wasn't gonna pay. They told me their hollywood lawyers might convince me otherwise. I payed, and never uploaded it. I might someday, but for now there's other shit to sort out. I know, YOU SHOULD HAVE SOLD THE SHOW WHEN YOU HAD THE CHANCE. My heart just wasn't in it, and I'd be damned if I let some idiot in Hollywood RUIN it. I'm too busy to work on it anyways, and I hated writing it. People wanted to see Satan rage over and over, and I found it hard to come up with ideas for, and satanic shit just irritates me now. Anyways. Thanks to the fans that showed so much support, it really means so much to me, thanks for everything.
TL:DR Leo and Satan is done forever, Me and the guy that voices satan and helped write it have grown apart, no drama, we just didn't like working with each other. also a professional hollywood studio stole 6k from me when i hired them to animate and episode, and they delivered garbage. I don't like thinking about leo and satan. I didn't sell it cos i didnt feel comfortable whoring out my characters for a show I knew would suck. Thank you all, the end

BASS introduced the BASSnet 2.9 Fleet Management System during the recent Asia Pacific Maritime event in Marina Bay Sands, Singapore. BASSnet 2.9 now features new modules such as Environmental Management, Port Forms Management and Excel Forms Management. In the era where messaging tools are increasing in popularity, the 2.9 release also features the 'My Discussions' feature which allows Users to a create topics of discussions in a 'chat room' style environment in relation to specific records in the System. The new "Maintenance Cost" feature covers all bases in the Maintenance module as with the inclusion this powerful feature Users can quickly generate either the 'Forecast' or 'Actual' maintenance cost incurred for Jobs, Material and/or Resource.
To ensure compliance with the ever-changing guidelines related to crew safety, BASSnet 2.9's Work & Rest Hours module has now been enhanced to ensure compliance with the OPA90 regulation.
In 2013, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) mandated the need for all vessels to comply with an energy efficiency plan. By 2015, IMO plans to implement new sulfur emissions targets for all vessels in order to reduce CO2 emissions. Built on the Microsoft .NET platform, BASSnet Environmental Management module was designed to meet the maritime industry's aim of reducing a vessel's impact on the environment. With BASSnet's Environmental Management Module, Users can track all information pertaining to the calculations for environmental emissions based on date ranges and voyage legs. This data can then be used for comparison and for generating environmental impact trends. This helps shipping companies, ship operators and ship personnel to calculate the amount of pollution created compared with the cargo carried and the distance sailed; hence helping to manage and reduce fuel consumption and lower greenhouse gases and other emissions.
Port Efficiency
BASS also considered the complexity of Port operations, which involves a tedious amount of administrative work which is time consuming. With this in mind, BASS developed the new Port Form Management module which contains a repository of country-specific port forms for pre-arrival clearance to be tendered to the immigration, customs, health and security authorities at a port, and for statutory bodies such as the International Maritime Organization. The Port Form Management integrates with other BASSnet modules to auto-populate the forms with relevant data that is required for reporting. Print-out the relevant port-specific forms that will be required at a particular port and also store and print non-port related forms such as Environment related forms, class related forms, regulatory forms and so on. The module also contains company-specific forms, and forms can even be imported in any document formats allowing the BASS Customer Community to work hand-in-hand to share Port Form templates.
"BASS is foreseeing the future technology in reducing paperwork involved in order to create a green environment. We are pleased to introduce our solution to meet the imminent needs," said BASS' Chief Executive Officer, Per Steinar Upsaker.
BASS prides itself in creating and designing tools to generally simplify the work-load of the average user while maintaining a paperless workplace. With the new Excel Forms Management feature, users can now create as many forms as they require using Microsoft Excel. These forms can then be linked to various records in the system, for instance, link a form to a job order in the maintenance module and uers can access and fill them up during the reporting process. The values entered in the form will then be captured and stored as a record in the BASSnet Documents' Record Manager.
Redesigned HR Manager
Another enhancement in BASSnet 2.9 is the newly improved and re-designed BASSnetTM HR Manager which now fully complies with MLC, 2006 i.e. the Seafarers' Bill of Rights which aims to ensure that seafarers' rights are covered by providing a safe and secure workplace with safety standards, fair terms of employment, social conditions and decent working and living conditions. The enhanced Work & Rest Hours feature and the HR Manager's Payroll module for instance, meets the International Labor Organization (ILO) standards. Complaints reported on the fleet can now be logged in the system and recorded based on vessel and persons involved.
